<p>[QUOTE=&quot;maridvnvm, post: 2850546, member: 31620&quot;]Your obverse die reads COS I. Or at least it did. The I has become merged with the tip of the bust over time in the die. Here is the same obverse die with perhaps a little bit of the I remaining and a MONET AVG reverse.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10618/RI_064mi_img.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is another example of mine from the same obverse die and the same reverse type. This time the I is still visible. My reverse has a longer legend - SAECVLI FELICITA</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10618/RI_064jk_img.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I have the same reverse type from the IMP II series. To my knowledge it is the only known example of the reverse from that series and doesn&#039;t appears in any of the standard references.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10618/RI_064od_img.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>There is an obverse die that does appear to end COS.... but this is actually a COS II</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10618/RI%20064fj%20img.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Regards,</p><p>Martin[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
